Abstract
A constitutive model to simulate the elastic-plastic and slip actions of fusion magnets under operating or abnormal loads is outlined. To represent the elastic-plastic responses a unified material homogenization procedure based on the existing composite technology was applied to obtain an effective incremental stress-strain relationship for the heterogeneous, laminated magnets. The inter-layer slip behavior of the magnets was represented by a friction-type model from which slip deformation can be calculated for the situation where inter-layer shear stresses exceed the bonding strength of the adhesives. Numerical results of three example problems are presented to demonstrate the utility of the proposed model.
